I have been in business for over 45 years and I have NEVER had a distributor handle there business in such a non personal manner. Immediately upon entering the showroom the gal behind the desk made no eye contact, treated me like I was an inconvenience. I simply asked to see the tile that my customer had chosen before I was to pick it up. After NO communication whatsoever she finally led me to the tile on the racks. Still zero words from her mouth. Then she handed me the pick ticket and said go out there stay behind the gate. After waiting for 15 minutes the forklift driver dropped a pallet with

If you are an installer just refuse your clients to get tile from this company. 10 years I had to deal with this people. They are always rude and unhelpful. The will call always treat us like garbage because we are installers. They only work with discount show rooms that are as useless as them. And if you need extra pieces or something comes wrong get ready to beg. By far the worst tile company in the area.

Surface Art has a diverse line of products at competitive pricing. Their displays have definitely earned their prominent position in our Art Tile Co. showroom. Over the years they have also been one of our best vendors at understanding the clear and strong differentiation needed between a wholesaler and a retail dealer, keeping our relationship strong.

As a new employee of Surface Art, and having been in the industry for over 20 years, I can assure that there is NO other company that takes service, quality and trends more seriously. The management is involved and focused on the well being of the employees so that they may provide the best experience for our customers. I can rest assured you I have worked with them all, never written a review for any of the others, and assure you that you will have a first class experience.

Surface Art is a family and veteran owned business that inventories over 6,000,000 square feet of tile in their Tukwilla facility and their service goes above and beyond. Is every company perfect no...however they always strive to fix any situation that presents itself. They donate to Habitat for Humanity, throw employee parties with their families, and have some the longest tenure in the industry. Speak with their customers that buy from their everyday to get the truth.

As a designer, Surface Art Tile is the first place I go to when creating my designs. The boards are detailed and explain everything you need to know about a particular tile. I especially appreciate the tile variation is quantified with a number from 1- 5. Generally most tiles have matching mosaics for pan tile and also Bullnose, making it easy to complete a design. I have always found the quality of the tiles and the customer service to be above and beyond.

This company puts profits over people and it shows in quality. The customer service is terrible and the management is even worse. You will always have either broken product or missed pulled items and they will scream at the employee in front of you! No professionalism and I'm so disappointed that GreatFloors and Tile for less does business with these people.

We ordered ledger stone for our fireplace wall. We loved the colors and ordered corner pieces as well as flat face pieces. When we received the product, the corner pieces are pre-assembled, and have a metal piece that hold the 90 degree shape in place. However, the metal pieces are crookedly glued on and the corners do not sit on the corners well. They are all off, and some rock on a perfectly square corner. After emailing and sending them photos of the poor manufacturing, all they say is to contact the company I used to purchase their product, and they cannot help. I am apalled after spending

Don't bother to order tile from Surface Art as the manufacturer/supplier, you'll wait and wait and wait for it. Apparently they don't have anything pre-produced, and they just collect orders to send to China, then once they reach the volume they need, they'll produce it. My order has been delayed time and again. They have no clue about how to serve customers.
